Bacteremia after proctoscopy and hemorrhoidal injection sclerotherapy.

The incidence of bacteremia following proctoscopy and hemorrhoidal injection sclerotherapy was studied in 50 outpatients undergoing both procedures. Bacteremia was found in 2 per cent of the subjects after proctoscopy and in 8 per cent after sclerotherapy. None of the subjects developed symptoms of septicemia following the procedure. It is concluded that antibiotic prophylaxis should be used before sclerotherapy in patients with valvular heart disease or compromised host defense.

[Spermatogram evaluation in cases with Crohn disease].

In 29 men with Morbus Crohn sperm density was less than 20 MIll/ml in 14 cases. There was a lack of motility of spermatozoa in 19 cases and 26 cases Spermmorphology was pathological. Although the LH-and Testosteron-levels were normal, we found decreased FSH-levels in six cases. Seminalplasmafluid was pathological in 10 cases. According to the guidelines of Eliasson for estimating semen qualities, 21 were severe pathological, 4 were pathological and 4 doubtful. We discussed the different etiological possibilities of Morbus Crohn and their possible influences on spermatogenesis.
